DT10Sam Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 (edited) Hi everyone, I had a friend drive up from Hamilton today and he stopped in to see how the business was doing. At the same time we had a few customers coming in for minnows and asking about where a good spot would be to get some walleye. After we gave them some advise my friend Dave stated that he would like me to guide him fishing if I had time to go today. Well I guess that is all it took I said that I really don't guide but I love to go fishing. I turned to Glen and let him know that I am taking the day off and then called my wife and let her know that I will not be at the store today cause I am going fishing and off we went. We hooked up the boat and off we went. We put in at Picton harbour and headed east of the ferry. when we arrived there I noticed quite a fishing frenzy at Keith shoals with 14 boats in the area. We marked many fish and did not land any in that spot, after an hour and noticing other leaving the area we then left to fish Thompson's point and the reach. We landed 14 fish with the largest at 12.2 lbs, 11.4lbs, 10.8lbs, 10.4lbs and many others in the 5-8 lb range. We kept 5 fish between us that were less than 4 lbs for dinner and I have to add that they were delicious. All of the walleyes were caught in 30-40 feet of water and the lucky bait today were Reef Runners and Rapala TD11's in many different colours. Yo-Zuri's were not producing today as they normally did in the past few days. I guess the walleye's wanted something different on the menu today. All of our fish were caught off of planer boards. Dave with his first walleye hitting off of the planer board. Dave with his first walleye at 11.4 lbs. his personal best. I was next with my first of the day at 12.2 lbs. Dave with another nice walleye. My third of the day. A couple of keepers for the frying pan. It did begin to rain and we called it a day with success and the company of a good friend. Best regards, Sam Edited November 27, 2007 by DT10Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
